Alaska Airlines is retiring its special “SalmonThirtySalmon II” livery on the pictured Boeing 737-890 N559AS. The special livery is in support of Wild Alaska Seafood.

N559AS was the second AS aircraft to wear this iconic livery. Boeing 737-490 N792AS was the first. N559AS replaced N792AS when it was retired.

Sporting an image of a wild 129 foot long Alaska king salmon, the aircraft’s livery also features fish scales on the winglets and a salmon-pink colored “Alaska” script across the fuselage. The 2012 design is among the world’s most intricately painted commercial airplanes and was produced in partnership with Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute, which promotes wild, natural and sustainable Alaska seafood.
